Indiana investor lending

Investment property loans in Indiana

Finance an Indiana rental by using the property’s income — not your tax returns, W-2s, pay stubs or personal debt-to-income.

Built for investors in one of the Midwest’s most reliable cash-flow markets, with property taxes that stay predictable.

At Andes Mortgage, we service the state of Indiana with DSCR loans for purchase, refinancing and DSCR HELOCs and HELOANs for equity access without affecting a current mortgage. Everything about what we offer in this page.

The Indiana market right now

Indiana investment-property market at a glance

Indiana remains one of the most affordable entry points in the country for rental investors.

The statewide median listing price sits around $299,000 — a fraction of what the same cash flow costs on either coast, and low enough that a single-family rental can still be acquired with a five-figure down payment. That affordability is the whole reason out-of-state and BRRRR investors keep targeting the state.

Prices step down as you move away from Indianapolis: the metro anchors the top of the range, while Fort Wayne, Evansville, and South Bend typically trade below the state median, which is where the strongest rent-to-price ratios live. The trend has been steady rather than speculative — Indiana didn’t run up the way Sun Belt markets did, so you’re buying into appreciation that’s gradual and rent that’s grown consistently, not a market priced for perfection. 

And because the property-tax cap holds the tax line to 2% of assessed value on a rental, a rising assessment can’t quietly erode the ratio the way it can in states without a cap.

Why investors are buying in Indiana

What Indiana rents are doing

Indiana is one of the most dependable cash-flow markets in the country — and one of the few where the property-tax math actually works in an investor’s favor.

The four metros investors ask about most each play a different role: Indianapolis is the anchor — the state’s largest, most liquid rental market and a national cash-flow destination bought heavily by institutional investors, which is both a validation of the thesis and the competition you’ll face for the best inventory.

Next, Fort Wayne and Evansville are the classic lower-basis, higher-yield plays, where entry prices sit well below the state median and deals routinely clear a 1.0+ DSCR on rent alone.

South Bend rounds it out with steady Notre Dame–driven demand and prices sit below the state’s median price.

Across all of them, Indiana’s constitutional property-tax cap — 2% of assessed value on residential rentals — puts a hard ceiling on the tax line, so the DSCR you calculated today isn’t blown up by a reassessment after you close.

WHY INVESTORS WORK WITH ANDES

Financing Built Around the Deal — Not Just the Borrower

Our business-purpose loans are built for investors. 

We understand that your financial situation may be complex. Our clients range from those who are starting with one rental home to those running large portfolios in multiple states.

The goals of our investor clients can change – some deals are about cash flow while others are about pulling equity out to deploy in other projects or buying in an LLC.  Or financing a short-term rental, while finding a structure that still works when the numbers are tight.

At Andes Mortgage, we help Indiana real estate investors look at the property, the strategy, and the financing together. 

Instead of trying to force every deal into one loan program, we compare the available business-purpose options and help you understand which structure makes the most sense for what you’re trying to accomplish.

Frequently asked questions

Indiana investor loan questions

Yes. Andes originates business-purpose investment property loans on non-owner-occupied Indiana real estate. 

Our offerings including DSCR loans for purchase, refinancing, cash-out refinances, investor HELOCs and HELOANs, and short-term rental financing.

These loans qualify on the property’s rental income, so there are no tax returns and no personal debt-to-income calculation.

No. In Indiana, Andes offers business-purpose investment loans only — financing for rental and other non-owner-occupied property. We do not originate owner-occupied, primary-residence, or other consumer-purpose mortgages in Indiana.

A business-purpose loan finances property held to generate income or profit — a rental, a BRRRR project, a short-term rental — rather than a home you live in. Because the loan is underwritten on the property’s cash flow and business use, it follows different rules than a consumer mortgage, and the property is typically non-owner-occupied.

Indianapolis for depth and liquidity, Fort Wayne and Evansville for higher yields, while South Bend and West LaFayette for college-town demand. 

Absolutely. You can title your property to an LLC using our DSCR loans in Indiana. For more information on having a business own the property, visit our DSCR LLC page.
